Fabulous food, good value, quick service......just what is required of a coffee shop!

Swanky

One of the local chain found in many of Norfolk and Suffolk's most popular tourist towns. Unfortunately there's no bike parking so not a good choice for a group: maybe just get a takeaway.

Unpaved paths mean its not easily accessible on a road bike; a better location for the gravel riders.

2024 closed for conservation but can be viewed.

Great staff and great food

Has a car park which you can park all day for £2.3 (credit card or App only). All has Hetty’s House Tea Room, public toilets. As well as a number of woodland walks.

Tranquil and beautiful lake, full of fish and crystal clear - you can see shells at the bottom and the local geese are inquisitive.

Closed for restoration work as of Aug/Sept 2023, but you can still view from the car park. Baconsthorpe Castle is a moated and fortified 15th century manor house, that are a testament to the rise and fall of a prominent Norfolk family, the Heydons. Over 200 years, successive generations of this ambitious family built, then enlarged, and finally abandoned this castle. Sir John Heydon probably built the strong inner gatehouse during the turbulent Wars of the Roses period, and his son Sir Henry, whose memorial can be seen in Baconsthorpe Church, completed the fortified house. In more peaceful times, their descendants converted part of the property into a textile factory, and then added the turreted Elizabethan outer gateway, inhabited until 1920 (https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/baconsthorpe-castle/)

Lovely tranquil spot, crystal clear water, with lots of fish and shells.

Lovely spot for lunch. Bike parking over the road.

One doesn't see many castles being built these days, but this one is well under way.

Great campsite. Bike repair facilities. Clean toilets and showers. £7.50 a night for a biker and tent.

Here lies the ruins of the 15th century fortied Baconsthorpe Castle, complete with moat, which was once home to the Heydon family. Part of the property was converted for use as a textile factory, while the later addition of the turreted gatehouse was lived in until the 1920s.

Woodland and open field, great quality of trails

Spoilt for choice, pleased to have space in the handlebar bag for later treats!

A few off road routes here good for family, go out on to Holt Lowes for some extra adventure, but beware of the free roaming cattle grazing out there.
